May 2019 — An interior lounge and corridor at Target Corporation’s headquarters in Minneapolis, designed to encourage informal meetings, employee collaboration, and visitor reception. The space reflects Target’s post-2010 modern workplace philosophy — blending minimalist corporate architecture with hospitality-inspired interiors. Curved ceiling soffits, accent lighting, and red brand-themed wall panels soften the otherwise sleek office environment, while modular seating and large communal tables support group discussions and mobile work. This type of open, flexible workspace became increasingly common in large corporate campuses in the 2010s, as U.S. companies shifted away from traditional cubicle layouts toward collaborative, design-driven environments influenced by retail and tech sectors. The Target brand’s signature red is subtly integrated throughout, reinforcing corporate identity within the workspace’s architecture.

May 2019 — An abandoned wooden railroad bridge curves over the Mississippi River at Nicollet Island in Minneapolis, a quiet remnant of the city’s industrial past. Once part of a freight spur serving nearby mills and factories, the structure now stands unused, adorned with graffiti and framed by spring foliage. In the background, the tan brick towers of Riverplace and surrounding condominium developments reflect the area’s transformation from rail and river commerce to modern urban living.

May 2019 — Cedar Lake South Beach in Minneapolis, photographed in the evening light, captures one of the city’s quieter public beaches along the Chain of Lakes. Located west of Bde Maka Ska, Cedar Lake is known for its natural shoreline and tree-lined surroundings, offering a more secluded experience compared to the busier neighboring lakes. The sandy beach, calm water, and sailboats anchored offshore highlight Minneapolis’s integration of recreation, nature, and urban life within a few miles of downtown.

May 2019 — A detour sign for the Southwest Light Rail Transit (SWLRT) project stands beside a bike trail in Minneapolis, showing the rerouted path for cyclists and pedestrians during construction of the Green Line Extension. The detailed map outlines temporary closures through the Kenilworth Corridor and Cedar Lake areas, where new light rail tracks are being installed to connect downtown Minneapolis with the southwestern suburbs. The project, one of the largest public works efforts in Minnesota history, has significantly altered popular urban trails like the Midtown Greenway and Cedar Lake Trail since construction began in the late 2010s.

June 2019 — Downtown Minneapolis glows under a clear night sky, with Target’s illuminated headquarters on the left displaying its signature red and white colors across the rooftop screens. To the right stands the Campbell Mithun Tower, its reflective glass façade mirroring the surrounding city lights. The historic Foshay Tower, crowned with its bright beacon, anchors the scene in the background—a reminder of the city’s architectural evolution from early 20th-century art deco to modern corporate design.

June 2019 — U.S. Bank Stadium in downtown Minneapolis, photographed under a clear night sky, showcases its striking angular design illuminated by the city’s glow. Opened in 2016 and designed by HKS Architects, the venue serves as the home of the Minnesota Vikings and a premier multi-purpose arena for concerts, major sporting events, and conventions. Its faceted steel and glass shell evokes the prow of a Viking ship, a nod to the team’s heritage, while its translucent ETFE roof allows natural light by day and reflects ambient light by night. This structure replaced the collapsed Metrodome and now anchors the eastern edge of the Minneapolis skyline as one of the most distinctive modern stadiums in the United States.

June 2019 — A John Deere 843L feller buncher sits parked near the railway tracks in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, during the early stages of construction for the Southwest Light Rail Transit (LRT) project. Designed primarily for forestry work, this heavy-duty machine—with its massive front grapple and thick treaded tires—was adapted for clearing brush and trees along the rail corridor. The mix of heavy equipment, rail infrastructure, and suburban backdrop highlights the region’s ongoing transformation as the light rail expansion reshapes Minneapolis’s western suburbs.

June 2019 — A tracked John Deere feller buncher with a yellow cutting head sits idle beside the Cedar Lake Trail in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, during early site preparation for the Southwest Light Rail Transit (LRT) extension. The machine’s “KEEP BACK 300 FT / 90 M” arm warning and the trail’s closed fencing mark the transition from a popular cycling route to an active construction corridor. In the distance, the bridge approach and industrial structures hint at the scale of redevelopment that reshaped the rail and trail landscape through Minneapolis’s western suburbs.

June 2019 — The Pillsbury A-Mill is a former flour mill located on the east bank of the Mississippi River in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It held the distinction of being the world's largest flour mill for 40 years. Completed in 1881, it was owned by the Pillsbury Company and operated two of the most powerful direct-drive waterwheels ever built, each capable of generating 1,200 horsepower (895 kW). The mill was named a National Historic Landmark in 1966 and has since been converted into resident artist lofts.
